DisplayPort Receiver IP

Overview

Our 6th generation DisplayPort Receiver Link Controller core supports DisplayPort 2.1, DisplayPort 1.4a and embedded DisplayPort 1.5.

Features include link rates up to 20Gbps for DisplayPort 2.0, 8.1Gbps for DisplayPort 1.4a. Display Steam Compression (DSC), multi-stream transport (MST) and more. The base core includes all required link functionality— Main Link, Secondary Channel, and AUX Channel protocols—and supports the HDCP 2.3 standards for data encryption.

The DisplayPort Receiver core interfaces use common industry standards for low-complexity integration.

Video In

Streaming interface with industry-standard flow control, including separate syncs and data enable. Frame and line delimiter signals are supported with either 1, 2 or 4 pixels per input clock cycle.

42-bit pixel inputs provide deep color support. Other color depths are chosen through selective use of these input ports.

Audio

Multi-port I2S interface with up to 32 audio channels for digital audio transport.

Host

32-bit AMBA Peripheral Bus (APB), 4 slave port for low-complexity transfers of configuration information to the core.
